It was exciting to have two insightful speakers for our Parent<br />
Seminars during <strong>2018</strong>-<strong>19</strong>. The first Seminar was held on 26 January<br />
20<strong>19</strong> by Professor Joseph Jao-Yiu Sung ( 沈 祖 堯 教 授 ) on the topic<br />
of “This is the Me Me Me Generation”. Professor Sung was Vice-<br />
Chancellor of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) during<br />
2010-2017. Around 200 <strong>PD</strong> and SD parents joined the Seminar and<br />
Professor Sung shared his thought about the challenges facing our<br />
next generation. The second Seminar was held on 4 May 20<strong>19</strong> by<br />
Dr. Annis Lai Chu FUNG ( 馮 麗 姝 博 士 ) on the topic of “The Art of<br />
Parenting: Self-centredness and Aggression of Children”. Dr. FUNG<br />
is an Associate Professor of Social and Behavioural Sciences at the<br />
City University of Hong Kong (CityU) and she gave our parents her<br />
professional advice about anti-bullying. <strong>PD</strong> parents were also invited<br />
by <strong>DBSPTA</strong>-SD to join their Parenting Seminar on 18 May 20<strong>19</strong> by<br />
Dr. Agnes Chan ( 陳 美 齡 博 士 ) and our parents learned a lot from the talk.<br />
We also tried for the first time to arrange some Educational visits, including Visit to Hong Kong Observatory for some<br />
G5 boys, Visit to Civil Aviation Department - Education Path for some G4 boys. We may arrange more of these visits<br />
in future if we find good opportunities.<br />
